Mr. Speaker, after nine years of the NDP-Liberals, taxes are up, costs are up, crime is up and time is up on the Prime Minister's costly carbon tax. Yesterday, once again, the Parliamentary Budget Officer reaffirmed that Canadians are out when it comes to the tax. If we add up the two carbon taxes, and of course the tax is taxed again with the GST, it will cost households anywhere between $900 and $2,000 per year.
If the government is so sure of its plan to quadruple the carbon tax, why not let Canadians decide in a carbon tax election?
